Chapter 298: 0298 is not coming alone. Chapter 298: 0298 is not coming alone. He touched his chest, and then reached for the wine glass on the coffee table, downing it in one gulp.
His agitated mood wasn’t relieved at all; pouring another glass, he gulped it down just as quickly.
There were other people in the private room, all familiar faces.
Some were invited by Mo Shangjie, while others were brothers from the top echelons of Yong City’s elite households.
Some were singing, some were drinking–it was quite a lively scene.
Most people had one or two sexily dressed, enchanting women keeping them company.
Of course, there were exceptions.
Wen Jichen sat indifferently to one side, legs casually crossed, wearing an expensive designer suit of significant value, two buttons at the collar undone to reveal his delicate collarbones. With every sip he took, his Adam’s apple would move subtly, his well-defined muscle lines enticing, flushing the faces of those who looked upon him.
Meanwhile, over on another side, Chi Mu’s handsome face was cold and indifferent, his deep, ink-like eyes exuding frostiness. His tall frame was wrapped in a fitted black suit, sleeves slightly rolled up to expose a stretch of pale, cold skin. He lounged leisurely on the sofa, emanating nobility and a strong presence, the image of a wealthy young master on full display.
The women in the room frequently glanced in their direction, and compared to Wen Jichen, Chi Mu drew even more gazes.
Rather than sitting next to the vibrant beauty that was a big star of Starry Media and the current darling of the entertainment world, being alone made Chi Mu seem even more appealing.
As the “Big Sister” of Starry Media and a hot star of the entertainment circle, everyone was, naturally, more than familiar with Yin Xiner’s face.
Apart from the fact that she had Wen Jichen, a big shot, behind her, Yin Xiner, as the young miss of the Yin Family, held considerable power in her own right, so naturally, no one dared to upset her.
Several women’s eyes fell on Chi Mu, their faces flushed, ready to make their move.
Chi Mu’s indifferent gaze rested on Mo Shangjie, who was clearly out of sorts, and his thin lips curled slightly.
“What’s the matter? Not coming out again?”
Mo Shangjie snapped back to reality, downing the rest of the wine in his glass, took a deep breath, then spoke.
At this, Wen Jichen’s black pupils slowly slid to the corner of his eyes, as his side gaze fell on Mo Shangjie’s face, his look almost mocking.
“The boss said he’ll come.”
With these words, silence fell upon the entire private room instantly; everyone’s movements halted, with only the sound of singing from the LCD screen remaining.
“If he’s coming, what’s with that look as if you’ve been divinely smitten?”
Chi Mu gave Mo Shangjie a faint glance, the well-defined fingers of his hand holding a cigarette, with the red end of the cigarette glowing, flickers of flame dancing as fine swirls of smoke twisted around his fingertips, gently rising and dispersing in the air, blurring his features.
His Phoenix eyes were slightly upturned, exuding a seductive allure that made the other women in the room’s hearts race.
Mo Shangjie gave him a dark look, his usually hearty voice now lethargic.
“He’s not coming alone.”
As this statement landed, everyone’s gazes converged on Mo Shangjie.
Feeling the entire room’s scrutiny, Mo Shangjie couldn’t help but shrink his neck a little.
No one cared about Mo Shangjie’s reaction.
They had just been digesting the news that Fu Qiyuan was coming.
Now, they had to process that he wasn’t coming alone!
Out of curiosity, people asked, “Who else?”
They were all part of the same circle, where it was common to see each other frequently, and naturally, they knew who was usually around Fu Qiyuan.
However, judging by Mo Shangjie’s demeanor, it seemed to be a new face.
Everyone grew even more curious.
